It was as if the whole conflict over the ring had never happened. Cha Dogyeong began messaging him all the time, acting like nothing was wrong. His attitude was exactly like that of a guy with a crush, so Sejun felt his heart pounding with excitement while occasionally squirming in awkwardness. Every time he received those messages, Sejun didn’t know what to do with the flutter in his chest. He’d fidget for a while, unsure what to write back, then hurry to type something out. “I…- 279.8 K • Completed
"You need only weep before me. Your tears are so beautiful, anyone who sees them would covet them." "Do you think humans could make me cry? Only you. You alone can make me weep, and you alone are permitted to witness such a thing." A flicker of amusement danced in Lebel's eyes. Yutis clenched his teeth. The thrill made him want to devour him once more. Seeing hid expression harden, Lebel asked curtly. "Do you regret it?" "…No. I'm grateful." "Grateful? Why? Was it good?" "If it…- 245.1 K • Completed
"Worry about yourself first." "I'm fine..." Fine? Lebel extended his hand toward the demonic energy that was gradually fading from Yutis’s form, and the priest had poured so much holy power into him that his face turned deathly pale. As a result, the wounds had mostly healed by now. However, in exchange, the demonic energy had diminished significantly. Yutis had originally possessed a vast amount of demonic energy, and if that energy disappeared entirely, it would not lead to a…- 245.1 K • Completed
“Please don’t misunderstand like that. A marriage on paper? I never even thought of that. It’s just… I was a bit embarrassed, that’s all.” “What?” “Because I didn’t know how Your Highness would feel if I called you ‘wife’…” “I told you to call me whatever you want.” Yutis’s nape turned red. Lebel watched quietly. He had thought it annoying whenever Yutis touched his reddening skin, but now he understood why he kept doing it. Seeing the white skin flush red…- 245.1 K • Completed
This man didn’t harbor malice toward him like the others. Yutis alternated glances between the nonchalant Lebel and Shati, still baring its teeth. “Aren’t you scared?” “What should I be scared of? Didn’t you say it doesn’t bite?” It was a savage beast unlike its master, but ultimately an obedient demonic beast that followed its master’s orders, right? Yutis hesitated and then took Lebel’s hand, seating him right in front of himself. As the unaccepted human mounted,…- 245.1 K • Completed
“It’s a little better.” Though Lebel’s body was human, his soul was demonic, harboring demonic energy. Naturally, being exposed to demonic energy made him feel invigorated. Lebel conjured flames from his hands. His efforts had paid off; he could now sustain it longer and more intensely than before. Killing someone with this was still difficult, but his body was transforming to allow him to use the demonic energy. And once he fully adapted, he would be able to wield its power. Lebel…- 245.1 K • Completed
Last time it was fingers, now earlobes. But indeed, due to prolonged exposure to the cold air, he had no sensation. When Lebel looked up at Yutis, he pulled his hand back with an “ah.” Looking slightly flustered, he offered something. “Please wear this.” Yutis put the glove he had been wearing on Lebel. The glove was as large as his big hand. His bare hand, hidden by the thick glove, was revealed. The calluses embedded here and there proved he had held a sword his whole life. Lebel…- 245.1 K • Completed
"...Who did you hear that from?" Yutis flinched. He'd only told him Norman was under surveillance, not that he was being held captive. Norman is currently imprisoned in the castle's basement as a criminal. Despite protests from the delegation, it's clear he used magic within the castle, so there's ample justification for keeping him imprisoned. "I overheard it." The knights and other attendants were complaining that the Empire couldn't be trusted and were shouting that they had to protect…- 245.1 K • Completed
Demon summoning. It had been a long time since demons first appeared in the Middle Realm. Demons were regarded as beings of evil, enemies of the gods, and were recorded in the holy scriptures as incarnations of sin. They were often likened to human desire, bringing chaos to the world. They were always portrayed as forces that disrupted peace, while those chosen by the gods defeated them and saved the world. Because of that, even forming a contract with a demon was enough for a person to be condemned.…- 245.1 K • Completed
Norman thought Lebel’s weak body and soul actually increased the chance of a successful summoning. He had already tried summoning many times with several bodies that were strong for humans, but he had never succeeded even once. When he tried to change his approach, the one who caught his eye was ‘Lebel Alcadi.’ Because the body was weak, that “being”!wouldn’t use his full power, so he wouldn’t break the balance of the Middle Realm. His soul was also faint, so it suited receiving a…- 245.1 K • Completed
